There are many ways to promote travel destinations from advertisements to direct sales trips to targeted markets, but when it comes to promoting a vast nation, with its endless beauty and hidden paradises, perhaps the best way is to bring the audience here to see for themselves. This exactly is what the Committee of BALI & BEYOND TRAVEL FAIR (BBTF) 2016 has envisioned for their upcoming event.

It will be Indonesia’s very own travel and tourism fair that brings sellers and buyers together in a single forum.

BBTF is B2B event and aims to advance the tourism industry through business sessions and direct promotion of best practices in MICE and Leisure management. Together with exhibitors and buyers from numerous countries around the world, BBTF facilitates Pre-Scheduled Appointments (PSA) and business sessions for buyers and sellers to negotiate on their long-term leisure and corporate travel needs. Corporations, travel agents, hotel & resort chains, cruise operators, convention planners, venue operators and travel buyers can leverage the two and half days of business to business sessions to enhance their respective brands in the Indonesian and Asia Pacific markets.

In addition to the B2B sessions, the travel fair will have an extensive program of activities for all delegates. From the fantastic networking events, to the inspirational knowledge program, the business of meetings has never been so rewarding. Bali itself was chosen as the venue because it is the gateway to Indonesia’s Archipelago for global travellers and the island contributes up to 40% of all visitors to the nation each year.

BALI & BEYOND TRAVEL FAIR (BBTF) 2016 will take the date from 22 – 26 June 2016 and the main venue will remain the same places as every year’s event which is at Nusa Dua, Bali, Indonesia and located within a secured beachfront enclave surrounded by many branded international hotels and resorts that are all within walking distance. In every year participated by exhibitors and buyers from numerous countries around the globe, making the BBTF 2016 is WHERE THE WORLD COMES TO MEET.
